Some of the ground near the spring
has recently been cleared and the de

started a big fire with brush and logs
in preparation 'for the visit of the
company later.
The company mustered at the ar
mory at 8 o'clock, each man bearing
a tin cup in addition to his other
equipment. 'As soon as Clie roll was
called, the company shouldered arms
and started on its hike. Shortly after
the main body left the armory, it
was 'followed by the commissary de

was packed with rations, in addition
to which Frank Wetherbee held a big
trayfull of pies on his lap. The war

the company, but as he is somewhat

asked a blessing. Then all fell to, and
what they did to the rations was a

with excellent coffee. Temple and Da Davis

(New York Times
Coblens. Feb. 4- Examination of a
large number of letters written by
uermans in the territory occupied by
the American Third army to friends
and relatives in the United States and
other countries reveals a wide range
of expression of hatred of Americans.
It should be explained that letters
from Germans here are not allowed
to go to America, because technically
Germany is still at war with the Al Allies.
lies. Allies. These Utters go to the Ameri American
can American base censor's office to be held
until peace is made.. Meanwhile they
have been examined by the American
censor, and it is to that examination
I refer.
It goes without saying that these
letters, or perhaps nearly all of them,
were written by Germans who did not
believe that they would be read by
American officers, and therefore the
expression of their feelings to their
relatives and friends may be taken as
sincere. The expressions of dislike
of the American are not unanimous,
but there is so much of. it in compari comparison
son comparison to the attitude of Germans in p'er p'er-son
son p'er-son toward Americans that' it comes
with striking force. It is just be because
cause because the Germans say one thing to
Americans here in Coblenz and write
another diametrically v opposite to
their cousins that it is worth noticing.
It is further'proof the workingof the
German propaganda.
Here is an example taken from the
leter of a wealthy woman here:
' What One Woman Wrote
"These detestable Americans have
been here again in my house. First
they came searching for arms, and
now they come again, searching for
food. God speed the day when the
curse of their presence will be re removed
moved removed from us."
Incidentally it may be stated that
this search to discover food hoarders
was undertaken not to obtain any for
Americans, but to protect the poorer
Germans against their wealthy neigh neighbors.

ment because the Americans are bil billeted

have forgotten that the Germans in
France did not content' themselves
with taking only spare room as the
Americans in Germany do, but often
drove out the families.
Scores of letters accuse the Amer Americans'
icans' Americans' of deeds of which they were
never guilty, and criticise the be behavior
havior behavior of our army, which is perhaps
more exemplary than any other army
cf occupation in history.
There are few statements of facts
in these letters. They are simply the
expression of the innate feeling which
needs no overt act of the Americans
to force to the surface. They show
how these same Germans J?ate us.
They know that Americans caused
them to lose the war, and they hate
them for it, their sweet words and
servile obeisances to the contrary not notwithstanding.

If one heard any of these expres expressions
sions expressions in his daily contact with Ger Germans,
mans, Germans, it would be different. But one
never does. It is always praise of the
Americans and their army and their
president and their country and their
behavior, and talk of how "we hope
the French do not come when you go,
because the French are so cruel and
the Americans are so nice."
German's Frank Talk to Frenchman
That reminds one of an incident
which throws light on the situation.
Yesterday I was seated in a cafe at a
table next to that of a French 'lieu 'lieutenant.

know.
"I hope they do," aid the German,
"They treat the people in Mayence so
well and these Americans are good
for nothing."
He was one of the Germans who
had been praising the Americans
whenever he talked to them. There There-one
one There-one sees the German attitude in a
rutshell. The aspect of friendliness
for Americans is fake inits entirety
and intended for only personal and
national gain.. They continue to try
to stir up trouble between the Ameri Americans

One may quote the words of an
American colonel, who is in a posi position

He said:

You say that we are "eager to sac-

have very queer ideas as to what
these words mean. It is the other way

Oh, no! The urge of popularity was

we verily believe that a balance will

for -many of the evils that disturb the
world today.
Sometime we have thought that
"southern chivalry" has been rather
overplayed, and a false value attach attached
ed attached .to it. After all, where isvthe noble
generosity in men being decently
courteous and considerate to women,
if they demand in return that women
yield the high privileges of citizenship.-
Tht price is entirely too great,
for women are supposed to be cour courteous,
teous, courteous, too, and I think most of them
are. Nor have we noticed such a vast
difference in the treatment accorded
women thru the north and west. We
have spent many summers in those
sections, and we have observed that
as a rule, women were treated with
uniform courtesy and consideration.
Certainly we have no charge, person personally,
ally, personally, to bring against our brothers of
the north and west. And those men
certainly seem disposed to deal out
even-handed v justice toward their
women. Twenty-one states already
have given presidential suffrage to
women, and many states are on the
verge of following suit. .Soon it will
be that only in the southern states do
nien deny to their women the right to
take part in the government that was
called into being by ah unconquerable
love of freedom.
But we do not believe that this
state of things can last much longer.
Surely the new day is at hand, and
it is about time all the Rip Van
Winkles were waking up. The thing
that is really troubling us most just
now, is the fact that a few reaction reactionary

submit that we have as good a right
as you, Mr. Editor, to express our
opinion about what s wrong with

remedy, and we have a right to this
without being accused of disloyalty
to our land by one who appropriates
to. himself the right to attack every
thing in the heavens above, in the
earth beneath, and in the waters un

written or otherwise, that requires
that we should keep silent about the
way southern senators, are making
the men and women of the South
ridiculous before the rest of the na

be party alignment and political
fences, are doing incalculable damage
to the, country, and yet when a free free-born

Before we close, we wish to enter
a vigorous protest against the proph prophecy
ecy prophecy so industriously circulated by the
opponents of suffrage to the effect
that if the franchise be extended to
women, Southern men will, become
rough and discourteous to them. True
ccurtesy is a matter of character and
not a temporary reaction to some
given set of circumstances, and we
nave too strong a faith in the fine na
ture and innate sense of justice of
our Southern men to fear that an act
of long-delayed justice will bring
about such a state of affairs except
among those who have been so un
fortunate both in inheritance and
training as never to have known what
true courtesy means.
